Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

The OpenD Programming Language (fork of D)
The reference compiler, DMD, is open source: https://github.com/dlang/dmd
But they don't accept just any Pull Request or features the community submits, understandably. There's a process called DIP for language improvements: https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/README.md
However, by some accounts, it's really hard to get anything through.
Given D already has so many feature, I find that to be a good thing , to be honest, by not everyone agrees, of course.

Mojo 🔥: A programming language for all AI developers
Borrow checking does not require lifetime annotations. D is a precedent there. Look at DIP25 and DIP1000.

Carbon Language: An experimental successor to C++
There's no "nogc" containers in phobos, or allocators, or an idiomatic way to do safe manual memory management. It expects you to do it the C way. It's also impossible to implement some things because of how D does moving. There's a DIP in the works to change how moving works, but it's overly complicated and bound to introduce even more bugs. https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/DIP1040.md
-
Is there any other programming language aside from C++ that has move semantics feature available?
D Is drafting up move semantics to interface better with C++. Although they're going a bit the Rust way in the current proposal. D has tried a couple of other strategies, but unique pointers and C++ interoperability kind of forced the hand of Walter Bright.

Module interfaces for pre-built libraries
I'm not sure about clang or gcc. For VS, u/GabrielDosReis might be able to speak to the .ifc IPR stability/volatility. My wager (deferring to him to correct me) is that the IPR is still changing over time but will stabilize more over time.

A new design pattern: the C++ "template mixin"
Have you had a look at its uses in the IPR interface and implementation? https://github.com/GabrielDosReis/ipr/blob/main/include/ipr/interface

Carbon Language: An experimental successor to C++
> C++ has virtually zero tooling
CMake, Meson, Waf, Conan, Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio, CLion, Intel VTune, GDB, LLDB, XCode, Artifactory, SonarQube, clang-tidy, clang-format, astyle, Incredibuild...
> Comparing CMake to cargo is like comparing fifth century fireworks to the Space Shuttle
You are wrong here. Cargo serves a set of fixed "this-is-how-to-do-it" thing. In C++ you can build anything. I do not mean it is better, but C++ software already exists and that is the solution that it works better for it. :)
